Proposes a constitutional amendment relating to firearms

Summary

The resolution would replace the current Section 23 of the Missouri Constitution with language that makes the right to own and use firearms unalienable and subject only to strict‑scrutiny restrictions. It still allows the state legislature to limit firearms for convicted violent felons or those deemed dangerous because of mental illness, and it permits cities and counties to enact ordinances on permits, fees, background checks, and penalties. The amendment would be placed on the ballot for voters in the 2026 general election.
